Abstract
Description
Government budgets are decreasing and interest in the law enforcement profession is deteriorating (Orrick, 2008). Law enforcement officer (LEO) recruiting rates have dropped dramatically and job satisfaction changes on a day to day basis. Agencies face personnel problems and are constantly having to hire new officers with little to no experience (Orrick, 2008). Agencies with little to no experienced officers on the streets face credibility issues in the community, further straining relationships and potentially creating liability issues (Schmidt, 2005).
